Green Technology: Turbocharging can help reduce CO2 emissions
Automotive manufacturers are being challenged to meet increasingly stringent emissions and fuel efficiency requirements - industry experts agree that turbo technology offers one of the most cost-effective routes to achieving the desired results.
The basic concept of a turbocharger is to recycle wasted energy from exhaust gas, transforming more of the fuel energy consumed into power. A turbocharged engine, therefore offers improved fuel economy, less CO2 emissions and better performance over a non-turbocharged engine.
Turbocharging allows auto manufacturers to reduce their engine sizes and therefore emissions while continuing to deliver the power and performance customers demand. |
